lyrics

Why you stand there cryin for me?
Like I've been waistin time?
Why won't you just leave me fuckin be?
Promise I won't mind.

Everyone around you listens to you well.
What a fuckin crime.
Glad I'm never gonna talk the way you do.
Vomit for the flies.

...and I bet you'll never stand as tall as me

And though I've tried to let you know my mind
The path is made, but all you do is stray
And though you're blind, there's something deep inside
That knows the game is easier to play

Long days unwind let your substance stew.
Maze-mind magnify and fry.
Pretending that the world was filled with things you knew.
Elementary error number nine.

...and I bet you'll never stand as tall as me
You'll never know your friends from enemies
And all your hollow words, alone, echo despair

And though I've tried to let you know my mind
The path is made, but all you do is stray
And though you're blind, there's something deep inside
That knows your game is easier to play
